Student Records

As the custodians of Portland Community College’s academic records, Student Records is responsible for processing incoming transcripts from other institutions, transfer credit evaluation, degree and certificate awarding, the commencement ceremony, and the integrity and confidentiality of students' records.

Order Official Transcripts

You may also order transcripts by fax or mail by printing and filling out the Transcript Request Form. Return this form to a campus Enrollment Services Office/Answer Center. Use this form to request that a transcript be sent after the end of term (to ensure that your GPA has been updated or your degree or certificate has been posted); check the “Hold for current term grades” or “Hold until degree is posted” boxes.

Transfer Credit From a Prior Institution

Graduate from PCC

You can discover which classes you still need to take in order to graduate via your GRAD Plan. Find your GRAD Plan on the My Courses tab in MyPCC. In most cases, students at Portland Community College will automatically be awarded degrees and/or certificates upon completion of requirements for the student's recorded program of study. Learn more about graduation here, including the difference between graduation and commencement!

Verify My Enrollment

Enrollment verifications are processed through the National Student Clearinghouse and can be accessed via MyPCC. To obtain proof of your enrollment at PCC, click on Get Proof of Enrollment from the MyPCC Home tab.

To verify your enrollment in a CEU course, request an official transcript be sent to the person or agency needing proof of enrollment.

Give Permission to Release Your Records

PCC must follow all applicable state and federal laws (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, FERPA), rules and regulations that apply to student records. To give PCC permission to release any part of your student records, click on Consent to Release from the MyPCC Home tab or complete the Consent to Release form and return to a campus Enrollment Services Office.

A student may prefer to use a first name that is different from their legal name. Also, they may want to have this first name appear instead of their legal first name in online rosters and in other college records and documents. The college allows this by setting a preferred first name. Students can set their preferred first name via the admissions application or by emailing enroll@pcc.edu and it will appear on most college records, such as MyPCC and the class roster. Some records, such as official transcripts and financial aid documents, that require use of a legal name, will not include the preferred first name. For more information, please review PCC's Preferred Name Policy.

Update My Social Security Number with PCC

Social security number changes are processed by campus Enrollment Services Offices/Answer Centers. All Social security changes must be accompanied by a copy of social security card, one piece of valid photo identification, and the Student Records Change Form with student’s signature.

Appeal a Grade or Mark on My Transcript

Exceptions to deadlines that affect a student’s transcript can be considered in cases of documented and significant extenuating circumstances. Learn more about various appeal options on the Appeals, Complaints, and Feedback website.

Apply for Academic Fresh Start

Academic Fresh Start is intended for the student who has been unenrolled from PCC for seven or more years to remove an entire period of poor academic performance at PCC from the credits earned and Grade Point Average (GPA) calculation. To learn more, speak with an academic advisor or email records@pcc.edu.
